I have two self managed servers and two corresponding client config files in my local `/etc/openvpn/client` folder. For some reason, one of the conf files (let's call it cert-1) is failing with the journactl error showing:
The other file (cert-2) is fine. I've checked the file permissions and they're identical:
Their contents are pretty much identical and I've even played around with commenting out differing line and changing the log level. The only different is the server IP address and the certs themselves. This was also working two days ago. The "Error opening configuration file:" error is pretty useless but I cannot get any more detailed logging. The file at `/var/log/openvpn/openvpn.log` is empty. I'm at the point of guessing and I'm guessing that the error message is incorrect.
Anyone else ever come across anything like this?
